I know that some HTC roms I have tried on my HTC phones, had a program that was called, Transfer. It let me transfer all my SMS from my old phone, onto that HTC phone. Is there anything similar for the Note 2? I have a BB 8800 which is old and I want to transfer all my SMS from that phone onto my Note 2 before giving my BB to a friend.
I don't have experience with bb but I wonder if backing sms to gmail would work and next step to restoring those sms on android phone

Hi guys, so I can pretty much do anything, I've been rooting for a long time. So should I root now? If so, which Rom would be best? Thanks in advance

Best way to find out what's the best rom is to try them out people can say one thing about a rom and you can think something else,
Root and rom away, and welcome

This.
Save yourself from any future headaches and head on over to Peoplearmy and GeeK's threads and back up your IMEI with both methods just in case.
I ran with stock rooted for a good week after getting my GS3 just to make sure there weren't any defects (since stock is the most stable).
Pardon my ignorance, I know what imei is, but if things go wrong, how will imei be involved?
Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
Some people where having issues and there imei was lost, there's a tool to back it up in development section just back it up you shouldn't have issues I haven't seen people inquiring about lost imeis lately,

For some odd reason, people have been reporting that their IMEI information on the phone was wiped while flashing ROMs through recovery. That information isn't supposed to be touched, but nobody has really found out the reason why that data gets wiped during the flashing process for some users.
When this happens, the phone loses its ability to connect to your mobile network (because it has no IMEI information to present to the network), so it's essentially an iPod. Last week I randomly lost my IMEI from restoring a nandroid backup from CWM (luckily I backed up my IMEI information and was able to restore it within minutes), but I've heard people saying that it happens on TWRP as well.
I'm not saying that it will happen to you whenever you flash a new ROM, but when it comes to these things it's always better to be safe than sorry.
Also, welcome to the SGS3 forums . Leaving the childish drama behind in the Amaze forum alone was worth the upgrade for me.

Trial and error always the best course with roms. I would root mine was rooted a few hours after I pulled it out the box.
Very easy to do and with our development section well worth it.

Phone stolen today.
I've suspended the service and tried to use plan b with no success.
I have insurance with tmo.
Is there any way I can locate it+how much will it be to replace via insurance claim?
:crying:
If you have insurance it shouldn't cost more than $40 to get a replacement.

Cops won't waste the resources for a phone that is not worth it.
Report it to T-Mobile and they will put the IMEI on a black list that it can never be used again...
I got a replacement via asurion
I'm not sure whether my stolen phone was imei blacklisted but they said it's now deactivated.
Actually pretty happy because my phone had tons of lines and a few scrapes+ scratched

That's precisely what I did and now..I'm getting a WHITE SII :victory::victory::victory:
They sent me a Blaze because apparently they didn't have any black s2 left...pretty dumb of them.
I think no apps can match 'find my iPhone' if in this situation ad i also have all version of iPhone.. once i try to locate n yes i found it back....
Samsung should have one of those..
Anyway, they shouldn't replaced to you the blaze i think... :banghead:

It definitely does come with it. Until Google voice is more reliable and Sprint also when it comes to data speed I will use Sprint vvm which is not so bad. I actually like the features. Hope the apk worked for you. If your still stock with no root and don't have vvm check the Sprint zone app to try to install it. If not I'd take it in. I think it comes with all note 2.
